“Great experience,fast friendly service“

“The sliced brisket sandwich was the best hands-down I’ve ever had!“

“the food and the staff are all amazing! thoroughly enjoyed it!!“

“The food was pretty good.“

“first time visiting here. Gelato was very creamy and light. ingredients seemed fresh. I got pistachio since so many positive reviews but I found a strange aftertaste. I would not order it again. also got almond biscoff which was very good with bits of candied pecans i believe! hubby tried stratchiatelli which was just ok , a little bland, did not taste a vanilla flavor IMO. I would go back to try other flavors. Gelato cookie sandwiches did look very good.“

“Fun staff and great environment. Went for a girls night and already looking forward to coming back. 🙌🏼“

“Fun atmosphere, cool decorations throughout, and good service“

“I got a chocolate ice cream today And a root beer float there are good I went tonight with my dad and sister and they have good ice cream I recommend it“

“FABULOUS smoked brisket/turkey ...sides are southern at its best...Local favorite....can't wait to go back!!!!!“

“Leon's is literally in my dreams! My boyfriend and I went there for the first time three years ago. It blew our minds! Affordable, delicious food, and such a fun atmosphere. We returned a couple of times on the same trip. We live in NJ... and set up a trip last year JUST to go to Leons. I am actually scared to post a review because I selfishly want to keep it a secret for my boyfriend and I. Man, if you like chicken and oysters... you cannot go wrong. Damn, now I need to set up another trip. :)“

“Park & Grove has become one of my favorite spots in Charleston. Whether it’s brunch with friends or a quiet dinner after a long day, everything here feels relaxed, thoughtful, and perfectly Charleston. The food is always fresh you can tell how much care goes into every dish and the atmosphere strikes that perfect balance between casual and elevated.

As someone who lives and works downtown, I love introducing clients to places like this. It’s exactly the kind of neighborhood restaurant that captures what living in 29401 is all about: walkable streets, friendly faces, and great food in a beautiful space. We often bring our dogs to eat on the covered outdoor patio.

If you’re new to Charleston or just exploring the local scene, Park & Grove is a must-visit. It’s where the locals go and where you’ll quickly feel like one.

“Hands down the best food and best server we have ever had. I can’t remember his name but his wife works there as well. I ave recommended anyone that is visiting the area to go there for the food ,the service We had shrimp and grits (best in the country ) grilled shrimp and Mac & cheese fried okra and the key lime beignets 🤤🤤🤤🤤all the food looked good that we saw come by“

“Exceptional wine selections in self serve machines and an owner that is extremely knowledgeable about wines throughout the world! Great service and a wonderful positive vibe. I can't wait to go back!“

“I have mixed feelings. Our first visit was over a decade ago and it was wonderful. Our anniversary was yesterday and it was an ok experience. We sat in the courtyard AB’s was placed under the above heater. We started smelling gas and the heat never reached the table area. So we were freezing. The appetizers were wonderful. The couple got seated next to us ten minutes after us and received their food first. Was told about different and best food options and a dessert menu. We were not given either. Bbq in the shrimp and grits was over powering any other flavor. Husband got fish and grits and it was excellent. Not a 0 but I’m in no hurry to go back or recommend to anyone else. Ruined my anniversary to be honest….“

“Simply perfection! The oyster selection is otherworldly. The chargrilled oysters the best Ive had in my life. (Florida born an culinary chef.) The peel & eat shrimp so plump and served ice cold I have craved them since I had them. The service was above and beyond. The atmosphere encouraged private chatter but also conversation with next table easily. Friendly and cheerful and above all excellent food served with smiles, suggestions, and ease. I will never visit Charleston again without making sure to dine here. (Do not eat the soup. I actually sent it back to the kitchen. Never have I had to do that. ) Highly recommend again and again for everything else.“

“We hosted our daughter and son in law's wedding dinner reception. We live in Virginia and planning this event from two states away was daunting, but Eli made planning flawless and easy, answering every nervous mother of the bride question promptly with so much interest and attention to detail. We had some food allergies that were handled with ease. The food was delicious, the private dining area was perfect, the patio cozy. The service was impeccable. This was such a memorable experience from planning to the bride and groom's send off. Perfect in every way!“

“Great food and service. Highly recommend.“

“What an amazing place! Went without reservations..told them it was my 70th birthday! Got a great table for 2 in back dining room…food was amazing! Our waiter Brian was the best! When I was disappointed that the didn’t have an apple dessert I wanted he had someone go across the street to get me one with a candle on it! And Josh brought us a glass of champagne… they didn’t know us …just met us.. and treated us to make my night extra special! Try High Cotton you will love it! ( we had the Filet and crab cakes)“

“literally everything we had here tonight was fantastic. the calamari strips are some of the best calamari I have ever had. the drinks were wonderful. I had this seard fish with the succotash which was so good. my boyfriend had the pot roast melt and loved it. the owner was absolutely fantastic. we will definitely be back repeatedly!“

“Edmund’s Original is one of our favorite restaurants in Charleston. It’s the perfect mix of quality and price, with a team that always makes us feel right at home. I can’t speak highly enough of this place. Whenever someone comes to visit from out of town, we bring them to EO so they can get a taste of what we’re fortunate to enjoy regularly. The food is phenomenal - from the fried chicken to the burger to the steak, and everything in between. The beer selection is top notch. In-house developed cocktails are creative, while the classics are on point if that’s more your speed. The chocolate cake and an espresso martini are the perfect touch to finish it all off! Oh, and don’t sleep on the special events they host! When the chef teams up with other chef’s from around the state, they always deliver a unique and delicious experience!“

“I liked the fish, loved the fries, the only thing is the seasoning. There was barely any salt on it and I wish they added even just a dash of lemon pepper on it, but the tartar sauce tasted homemade, very tasty, just that seasoning was all I was hoping for, ik your supposed to appreciate the fish, and I did, I thought it was good, I just wished there was something more to enjoy it with“

“Me and my daughter had been traveling all night (and looked like we had been). We stopped here because we were starving and needed to kill time until we could check into our hotel. The staff was so friendly to us. I felt like we were under dressed (it was Easter) but no one seemed to judge us for it. As for the food - amazing!!!!! I got the fried artichoke sandwich and it was sooooo good. The fries were also very good. This place has such a good vibe. I wish we were in town longer so we could enjoy it again.“

“I was visiting my daughter in Charleston and we had dinner, the drink menu had great choices and I particularly enjoyed the Gold Rush, the crab stuffed cannoli appetizer was the perfect starter before the outstanding ribeyes we both had! The real star of the show here is the Assistant Manager Jacqueline, she was very accommodating and her smile and pleasant demeanor made you feel right at home. I will be back every visit to Charleston in the future, well done👏🏻“

“😃 great well-crafted coffee drinks with fresh pastries.“

“This is now one of my favorite coffee shops to visit! Chip and the staff were friendly and professional. The banana bread paired with the macchiato (made with peanut milk) was a delicious combo. I also loved the atmosphere — such a great vibe. Keep up the great work!“

“I would definitely recommend S.N.O.B. for the quality of their food only. My friends and I were there on March 24, 2025, during an unexpected cold snap. We're from Florida and the weather was cold, windy and brutal. The four of us were seated at a table that was almost smack dab in front of the entrance door. Thus, people were constantly coming in and out. The manager should have had enough forethought to not place a table there, let alone sit people there in low fifty degree weather and high winds. We just wanted to get our food and get out.“

“Fabulous. And if you're impatient, the sro.. best service in the house!“

“Poogan’s Porch was definitely worthy of the hype! My family loved our experience there last night! We started the night with their delicious biscuits. We ordered the Pimento cheese fritters and the Crab Cake. Crake cake could rival Boston’s. My wife got the shrimp and Grits. She let me sample them. They were devine. I ordered their Famous bone in Chicken with greens and beans and rice. The Chicken was juicy and the hot honey took it to the next level. The greens had pieces of ham and the beans and rice were delicious as well. We were so full we didn’t have any room for dessert.“

“Amazing food and drinks! Stopped while passing through and highly recommend. Delicious!“

“Great food awesome atmosphere. Service was awesome. Ate at the bar and it was perfect“

“I am staying here now. The staff is excellent to say the least. But we had some issues with our room when we got here. They did try to accommodate us. They knew it was our anniversary and i am surprised that not even a complimentary dinner or even a bottle of wine was given. This year s not a cheap hotel so when spending this type of money to offer a dinner or a bottle of wine would have been nice.“

“Hats off to Gaby! She was wonderful! Her energy and huge smile. We’d go back just to see her again! 🫶“

“Thank you for having Charleston Society of Horror yesterday for our monthly meeting! We had a wonderful time. The food was great, service was even better and we will be back.“

“Absolutely 💯 💯 💯 We pride ourselves on finding the perfect breakfast spot any time we are out of town... and Vicious Biscuit did not disappoint 🙌“

“Had to check this place out. Read about them in the local City Paper. The sandwich options are plentiful, atmosphere cozy and the staff are very friendly. The sandwiches though 😳. You won’t disappointed. Glad we’ll have “The Pass” in Mt. Pleasant soon.
Three thumbs up and 5 Stars from the Mrs. and me :)“

“Everything was fantastic! From the decor to the menu, the wait staff and of course the food! Truly a wonderful new restaurant for Mt Pleasant with lots of vegan and gluten free options. We were there for dinner tonight and will be back again soon for Lunch! I highly recommend!“

“Weekend live music is unsurpassable“

“Can't wait to visit! Looks amazing!“

“Yummy vegan options!, great service, and cute decor.“

“Some gal pals and I went here the other month and from start to finish it was an absolute delight. As a seasoned veteran of sampling culinary delights I have got to admit it was one of the best meals and experiences of my days. Absolutely no notes.“

“Amazing food! Great environment!“

“Such a great little joint to visit while in Charleston! Plays the best music! And awesome food and drinks!!!“

“We visit Le Farfalle every time we visit Charleston, as it is a tradition for me and my son. We love the food and the atmosphere. We can’t wait to have many more trips together to enjoy there.“

“Great food and fast service!!“

“Delicious food, great atmosphere and unique drink options. Highly recommend.“

“Had a great experience and stay… we enjoyed our time at the pool bar. Bartenders were very engaging and friendly.. great group and they make great drinks. Cozy and quaint.. just wish they played music around pool and not just on the bar side.“

“I asked my fiancé to find a nice coffee shop that also sells beer in Charleston. After her google search, she asked our friends at The Lucky Luchador and they also recommended your establishment. I was definitely impressed with the atmosphere and selection of beer that was available. I will be coming back soon and will be your ugliest ambassador!!! 😊“

“We loved our breakfast at Lost Dog Café in Folly Beach! I had the biscuits and gravy with a side of cheesy grits — both were absolutely delicious and comforting. The kids got the happy pancakes, which were a huge hit and so fun with the fruit face design. My wife had the traditional breakfast, and everything came out hot, fresh, and perfectly cooked.

The cozy, laid-back atmosphere and friendly staff made it such an enjoyable start to the day. Definitely a must-visit breakfast spot when you’re in Folly Beach!“

“Love sightsee shop!!! The worst part about leaving Charleston was leaving sightsee.“

“Super Delicious breakfast in a cozy laid-back Atmosphere!!!“
